Immigration: Threat or challenge to Australia's future?

Religion in Australia 1900-2012.jpg Australia's population is on the rise and growing faster than the rest of the developed world. Faster even than India.

We're having babies and we're drawing in immigrants from around the globe.

A spin-off of immigration is the growth in the number of people of other faiths. Some see this as a threat to our Christian heritage, such as it is.

I prefer to see it as an opportunity, as God brings the world to Australia.

Note the decline in Protestantism. Mainly due to the collapse of the Protestant mainline — the Uniting Church and non-Evangelical Anglicans.

Thanks to reader Tas for the heads up on the ABS stats.
